### What this PR does / why we need it?
Some custom models in vllm-ascend define packed_modules_mapping, which
prevent keeping same model class with vllm community. So move these
custom packed_modules_mapping to quant utils.py. After this pr, some
custom models can be removed.

### Motivation
Currently dynamically experts balancing would stop-the-world.
Asynchronously expert load balancing would be better without flowing
problems:
Host-bound latency:
There are many cpu operations during EPLB such as
eplb-algorithm、creating p2p ops、and log2phy expert converting would
spend long cpu time, as ~1s.
Communication latency: The transfer time would cost much in the
situation without nvlink. As the weight of an expert maybe transfer to
multiple new positions, thus N times send/recv for one expert, with
result long latency. We had tested that batch_isend_irecv cost more
100ms for 16 experts weight transmission in A2 server of ascend.
SwiftBalancer would not stop-the-world anymore, in out test on NPU 1~2ms
cost for each layer while benefit 5ms-8ms decode latency with ep_size =
64.
The following updates have been made:
1、expert distribution recording with lower cost.
2、async cpu computing for eplb algo and other python operator.
3、new eplb algo with less expert rebalancing while almost the same
effect.
### Proposed Change
We will gradually migrate the EPLB logic to the VLLM community and
implement a generalized design. Relevant RFC:
https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/issues/22246
The overall workflow involves:

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1d73a459-1b23-4b0a-812a-bf0a75debfed"
/>
1. Record experts distribution during forward. We using expert_token_num
after disptach instead of topk_ids, thus we got much smaller tensor
shape to reduce cost of hbm recording and add-operator.
2. Do all-gather for experts distribution. Using all-gather instead of
all-reduce as less traffic volume.
3. Wake up eplb worker process with experts distribution when
num_iterations comes. Run eplb algorithm in eplb worker.
4. Generate p2p send/recv ops and other operator such as log2phy would
cost long cpu time.
5. Lanch ibatch_send_recv in async_stream before forward.
6. After forward, wait for the ibatch_send_recv finish, then do uapte
expert map and expert weights.

Currently, when executing to the Linear layer of the model in

This PR supplements the execution logic for Linear layer. When
VLLM_ASCEND_ENABLE_MLP_OPTIMIZE=1 and CANN version is 8.3, the weights
of the Linear layer will be converted to FRACTAL_NZ, in both unquantized

decreasing of memory consumption. It only support graph mode in pure DP
scenario.
In deepseek r1 w8a8 PD disagregated Decode instance, using pure DP, with

### What this PR does / why we need it?
* **Unify execution paths:** Consolidates the quantized and
non-quantized execution paths into a single `fused_experts` function,
removing duplicated logic and making the control flow clearer and easier
to maintain.
* **W8A8 dynamic quantization:** Adds support for W8A8 dynamic
quantization inside the unified MoE kernel. Communication routines are
updated to correctly handle dynamic quantization scales for activations.
* **Weight pre-processing:** Prae-transpose the `w13` and `w2` weight
matrices (as implemented in PR #2025) so that quantized and
non-quantized models follow the same code path for the MoE gating,
up-projection, and down-projection operations.
* **All-to-all communication:** Adds an `all-to-all` collective
communication pattern. For large token counts on modern hardware,
`all-to-all` is more efficient than the previous `all-gather` strategy.
However, `all-to-all` is not really captured and replayed due to
multiple D2H operations which will trigger synchronization, and thus
raise error when capture graphs. We only use `all-to-all` when fallback
to `compiled_graph_for_general_shape`.
* **Dynamic communication selection:** The model runner now selects the
optimal MoE communication method (`mc2`, `allgather`, or `alltoall`) at
runtime based on token count and the Ascend SoC version.
* **Limitation:** `all-gather` is not yet supported for quantized
models, which means there is still something left to do on A2.

In a mixed-precision scenario, quant_config is not None, but MoE needs

### What this PR does / why we need it?
The deepseek w4a8 weights we supported before were in mindie-format
format. It uses int8 to represent int4, so the weight size is similar to
w8a8, and we need to do a few extra steps to make vllm-ascend load it
normally.
Now we can directly use the new weight format, which uses two int4 packs
to save the weight, the weight size is reduced, and there is no need to
do many extra operations to directly use it on vllm-ascend, but we are
also compatible with the weights of the previous mindie format.
The weight changes in the new version:
1. The weight is packed （2 int4 pack to int8）
2. The bias required in the apply method is directly generated by
modelslim

This PR significantly optimizes performance for quantized Mixture of
Experts (MoE) layers by changing the order of quantization and
communication operations.
In the previous implementation, the `all2all` operation was performed on
unquantized `hidden_states` (in FP16/BF16) *before* quantization,
resulting in substantial communication overhead. By performing
quantization on each EP rank **first** and then sending the much smaller
quantized data, we reduce the communication volume by nearly 50%.
Additionally, this PR includes a minor optimization to cast `int` inputs
to `float` for the `argsort` operation, forcing it to run on a faster
NPU core instead of the AICPU.
These changes lead to a clear and significant performance gain in MoE
quantization scenarios.

### What this PR does / why we need it?
cherry pick #1749 from v0.9.1-dev
since the interface in vllm-ascend has changed so quickly, the
quantization function in mindie_turbo is no longer needed, so it needs
to be discarded.

### What this PR does / why we need it?
Adding `W4A8_DYNAMIC` quantization support for linear.
Dense models like Qwen3 can infer with `W4A8_DYNAMIC` quantization.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
None
### How was this patch tested?
Adding ut case in `tests/ut/quantization/test_w4a8_dynamic.py`
Adding e2e case in
`tests/e2e/multicard/test_offline_inference_distributed.py::test_models_distributed_Qwen3_W4A8DYNAMIC`
to test qwen3 w4a8_dynamic quantized model
Note the w4a8_dynamic quantized model is quantized by `msit/msmodelslim`
of commit `d0abb0a47e1f1a473b866ad41b737fbc28fb1409`
1. Generate `W4A8_DYNAMIC` quantization weights using `msmodelslim`
```shell
git clone https://gitee.com/ascend/msit.git
cd msit/msmodelslim
git checkout d0abb0a47e1f1a473b866ad41b737fbc28fb1409
bash install.sh
```
2. Serve model using `vllm`
```shell
VLLM_USE_V1=1 python -m vllm.entrypoints.openai.api_server \
--model vllm-ascend/Qwen3-8B-W4A8 \
--port 8000 \

There is a lot torchair specified logic in common code. It results hard
code maintenance. We will create a new torchair module to launch
torchair related logic there. I plan to add 4 PR.
1. Refactor worker
2. Refactor utils (this PR)
- simple change that move all torchair related util function to torchair
module
3. Refactor model_runner
4. Refactor attention

### What this PR does / why we need it?
Remove ETP/EP maintained in branch main. We drop this as there is no
relevant scenarios to use ETP now, and we may subsequently advocate
implementing expert tensor parallelism in vLLM to support scenarios
where the expert is needed to be sliced

### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR supports torchair graph mode with non-mla backend on both 800IA2
and 300I Duo platforms. The main change is to add
`attention_v1_torchair.py` to support specific attention related
operations that are required by torchair.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
Before this PR, vLLM-Ascend only allows deepseek to use torchair. Now we
can also use it with pangu. Besides, we add a support model list to
control which type of models that can use torchair.
### How was this patch tested?
We have test it with PanguProMoE on both 800IA2 and 300I Duo platforms,
and model generates answer normally.

### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
1. This PR has removed the env `VLLM_ENABLE_MC2`, because I think this
env is useless, we can make judgments based on the current scenario
without this env, it will only increase complexity.
2. This PR has removed the env `USING_LCCL_COM`, because this env has
already expired.
3. `additional_config.expert_tensor_parallel_size` has already expired,
and now we also use parameter `enable_expert_parallel`, consistent with
the vLLM.
